Days after trustees for the El Paso Independent School District postponed a decision to close 10 elementary schools, a neighboring district posted a video on its Facebook recruiting parents who might be seeking other options.

The video, posted Monday by the Ysleta Independent School District, appears to take a jab, albeit a gentle jab, at the city's largest school district.

It starts off with a black-and-white shot of a door with the caption, "When one door closes... a new door opens." The video then shows various images of Ysleta students and campuses.

The Facebook chatter introducing the video states: Looking for a change? Our doors are always open! Enrollment in #THEDISTRICT for the 2018-2019 school year is still open for new students! Enroll today!

"The video that was posted on the Ysleta ISD Facebook Page is part of the district’s student recruitment campaign," said YISD spokesman Christopher Lechuga in an email. "Since Ysleta ISD is an open enrollment district, we welcome and embrace all students who seek a positive, challenging, and innovative educational experience."

The day before EPISD announced that it would postpone discussion on the closures Eddie Romero, a video production specialist at YISD, tweeted at "angry parents" urging them to transfer to Ysleta.

Well, because there's money attached to each student. Some districts have open enrollment, meaning students who live in the EPISD boundaries can attend schools in Ysleta. If schools close down anywhere, a district stands to gain those students and that funding.

"Ysleta's also a school district that's closing schools. Because of that we understand we all have the same mission, which is to serve the students the best way we know how," said Gustavo Reveles, spokesman for EPISD.
